Despite all that may have been said against science, we
must not forget that, amid the deterioration of so many
human orders, scientific research remains one of the
rare domains in which man controls himself, bows to
reason, is not wordy or violent, but pure. These are
moments of research, constantly interrupted by the
banalities of everyday life, but moments that, conjoined,
have their own duration. Is not the place of morality and
loftiness henceforth the laboratory?
